False Reports About Prince Williams
Throat-Other Foreign Gossip.
[Copyi0llted 1857 by NeW York Associated Pres. ]
BERLIN, Sept. A.-The alarming reports
Of the renewal, in bad form, Of the throat
affection of Crown Prince Frederick
William have been traced to Paris and
Vienna sources. They are so definite and
detailed that they created much anxiety here.
Inquiry sent to Fobloch elected telegram
tonight, stating that the prince had not
been troubled with fresh symptoms.
These assurances, however, do not quite
dissipate the popular alarm over the Princes
condition. 1t is believed he has had slight
relapse.
The relations existing between Germany
and France at the present moment, are less
irritating than for some time past. Count
Won Munster returned to his post at Paris
yesterday charged with q pacific mes
sage from Prince Bismarck to M.
Flourens. The semi-ofiicial reference to the
arrest of the lad, Schnabeler, received
through the French embassy, states that
Count Herbert elected from Bismarck a
promise that In disposing OF the case, the
youth of the culprit would be taken into
consideration. :.
There is no improvement In the
relations between Germany and Russia.

dozen workmen chipping and moulding the
rough plaster models. In one room lay the
nearly completed plaster Indian who Is to
form one of the four teu-foot figures at the
corner of the pedestal. As showing the
minute care used in working out even such
minor figures, noticed that on one side re-
clined human skeleton, tied and blocked up
into exactly an Indians position, while on
the other side lay man selected as the model
for that part of the Indian then being marked.
Around the room were pictures and skeletons
of more varieties of the red man than knew
existed The pro.os,vr said. IL already have
been at work five years on this Washington
monument 1t may take five years more to
finish It., though hope to get 1t oil to Amer
lea within three years. 1t must not be exhib-
tied till everything is ready, as the public will
hardly get fair idea of it unless seen all to-
gether You can judge what an immense
amount of work 1t is when the sculpture tries
to make faithful likenesses not only of Wash
ington, but also of the chief personages, civil
and military, Of the American revolution.
Every detail must be worked out from life
and not merely from one model the head
statue of America. l had to blend dozen
faces in order to get as near as possible to the
American type of Washington. The horse had
subordinate to Washngton himself, so that
the eye of the observer rests upon the man,
not on the horse. l noticed scattered
around the professors room sketches and
photographs of every statue OF Washington
in America, while on table were copies of
all the known portraits of Washington, to-
gether with great variety of books, giving
an idea of life and character in revolutionary
times. The likeness of the civil and military
heroes of the revolution in bold relief on
both nsides of the pedestal are so excellent
| that l was able to pick out in half finished
plaster models such heads as those of Put
nam and Jefferson. The monument, when
| completed. will occupy one of the finest sites
| in Fairmont park, overlooking the river.
There remains an immense amount of work
still to do, but what is already done Is enough
| to make one regret that the work does not go
to the city Of Washington as national
monument

Seeking Lost Children

PORTLAND. Me, July -. There ha>
been much excitement here lately over the
doings Of band of gyp>ies who camPed
last week at Cape Elizabeth. They had
with them child, plainly of white parent
age, which, it j. said, they treated very
cruelty A description of the child. which
had evidently been stolen, was published
and YESTERDAY. Patrick Welch, of Nashua,
n. H., who had read the description, ar
rived here. thinking the child might prove
to be his own, which was stolen last May
The stroIlers had left the Cape and he
traced them to Cumberland where he at
last found their camp. They were inclined
to be very ugly but at last consented to
show him the child. Mr.. Welch found
that the description was very striking, but
it was not his little one 1t is stated by
the inhabitants of Cumberland that no less
than five persons have visited the camp
and demanded to see the child, hoping that
it might prove to be their own. 1t would
seem from this that child-stealing is not so
very rare even here in New England
